    Default Bigg's Brownie at USR 12 May

    Spotted a pair of Miletus biggsii biggsii (Bigg's Brownie) at USR today. The male was trying to mate with the female but somehow the female was not interested and after a while the female decided to stop the "sexual harassment" of the male and flew off. While I was adjusting some tree branches to have a clear-view shot, the male also flew off.

    I knew that they may come back to the same perch as this species like to associate with the ants due to their symbiotic relationship. I waited for a few minutes, this time the same male flew back to the same perch as before. With a better view now, I quickly snapped a few shots.

    You seem to have such luck in capturnig such moment. I remember you shot the DF too last time.

    Just behind those hedges where the Plane was usually found.
    I followed the date on your thread, yes should be 12 May - so the date on the tread title needs to be amended. Thanks
